[Fullmetal Alchemist｜Steelmaking] Life Theory

"what."

"what."

"what."

Before getting on the car going back, Opalxi, who was holding a drink in his hand, collided with Hughes, who was walking with Roy.Looking at the situation, Opalxi subconsciously wanted to hide the wine bottle, but Roy immediately moved forward, and Hughes quickly took the wine away from Opalxi's hand.

Ao Poxi stretched out her hand, looked at the wine bottle that was getting farther and farther away from her, opened her mouth, and finally withdrew her hand, saying hello to them.

"Why are you here? Didn't you go to another place? And you look like this...?" Hughes looked at Opus and asked, Opx was a little messy, so she cut her hair and patted Wiping the ashes off his body, he replied, "Kimmbley suddenly killed the person who told me to go over, so I caught him."

"Kimmbley..." Hearing the name, Roy frowned subconsciously.Seeing his appearance, Ao Poxi thought of something, bowed and apologized to Roy: "I want to apologize to you for the previous incident, Mr. Roy."

"What happened before...?" Roy paused, remembered what happened before, and immediately raised his hand and shook his head, saying, "No, no, it doesn't matter."

"Come here, Apoxie-style apology." Hughes said immediately, and put his elbow on Roy's waist. Roy quickly experienced it before he understood what he meant.Opalxi straightened up, looked at Roy, and looked away again: "I... I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to deny Mr. Roy's thoughts. I'm really sorry if I misunderstood you."

Roy was sweating slightly behind him. Seeing Opex like this, the corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously, and he immediately changed the subject.He took the wine he had just snatched from Opal Xi from Hughes' hand, and asked, "Want a drink?"

"During the battle, I dare not drink alcohol. Take a sip, for fear that you will be distracted during the battle and die." Ao Poxi found a random place to sit, took a sip first, and then sighed.Hughes nodded, took a sip, and said in a joking tone: "Obviously you will sneak away to smoke and listen to gossip."

"When did you two become so familiar?" Roy looked at the situation with a troubled look.Opalxi immediately replied seriously: "It's like this. I changed the area during the battle and went to the [-]th District to help them. I met Mr. Hughes again in the [-]th District."

"That's right." Hughes raised his chin slightly, agreeing to Opalxi's words.Seeing Roy stretch out his hand, he said to Hughes seriously: "Go back and treat me well, or I will tell you, dear Gracia, that you cheated on this little girl."

"Gracia will always trust me. You can't deceive her with such obvious lies!" Hughes immediately retorted after hearing this, which made Opalxi take another sip of wine: "If I let your relationship appear Misunderstanding, I apologize in advance."

"So, you were also apologizing at that time..." Roy thought of something, took a sip, and continued under Opalxi's confused expression: "You borrowed another method from my alchemy report Alchemy formula."

Opalxi showed a troubled expression, and seemed to want to apologize again, Roy immediately raised his hand and said to Opelxi, "Please don't apologize—"

"I'm sorry, I see..."

……

Roy covered his head, and Ao Poxi seemed to feel that he had done something wrong and wanted to speak and apologize.Hughes immediately put his shoulders on Roy's shoulders, and said to Roy seriously: "Speaking of which, do you know that little sister Opalxi is a lieutenant colonel?"

The word "little sister" made Opus frowned unconsciously, which caught Roy's attention.Then he met Hughes' eyes, and said to Opersey, "Really? Miss Opersey, you are actually a lieutenant colonel?"

"It's just a few jobs before." Opalxi replied, took another sip of her wine, looked away, and tried her best not to care about the title of little sister.Roy stroked his chin and asked curiously, "Little sister, do you always have a job?"

Ao Poxi didn't answer, she scratched her neck and looked uncomfortable.Hughes patted Opal Hee on the shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, the big brothers won't make things difficult for you, just let it be if you don't want to answer."

"Uncle." Ao Poxi didn't show mercy this time, she clicked her tongue, supported her chin, and glared at them again, perfectly expressing her dissatisfaction with them calling her little sister.Hughes immediately laughed out loud, Roy laughed too, and Opalxi snorted and finished the rest of the wine: "Occasionally large and small wars occur near the border, and there are other things. I'm not very good at clerical work, and all I can do is help the country fight wars."

"After this time, there should be a long rest time." Hughes nodded, and Opalxi touched his pocket, opened another candy, and started to chew.She looked at Roy without leaving any traces. Although she didn't show it during the chat just now, a little bit of dissatisfaction appeared in Roy's eyes after she said such words.

What are you dissatisfied with?

Opalxi chewed the candy, and Hughes asked, "Speaking of which, Opalxi, where are you from?"

"I live in the center." Opersey replied, touched her chin, and rummaged through her pocket.Hughes gave Opushee a pen and paper, which was crumpled.Opalxi nodded, thought for a while, wrote something in beautiful cursive characters, and then gave the paper to Hughes: "My family is here, just send the wedding invitation here."

"Okay, okay, received." Hughes nodded, folded the paper carefully, and put it in his pocket.Roy glanced at Opex and chatted a few more words.Soon, someone called Ao Poxi's name and asked Ao Poxi to get in the car and go back.So Opalxi stood up, and said good-bye to them politely.

Sitting in the car, Ao Poxi received thanks from a few ordinary officers, thanking her for going to the front so that they would save a few comrades from dying.So Opalxi nodded to them, then shook her head, expressing that no thanks were needed.The officers introduced their names, and Opalxi nodded, indicating that he had remembered it.

In fact, I have no interest, but after several decades, I should almost forget about it.The officers drank again and sang strange songs. A little girl in Opersey, sitting in the car, felt her own petiteness among the group of people for the first time.

She braced her face and listened to what they said about her hometown, so she thought about what happened in her hometown.It's a pity that I didn't come up with a general idea, so I was interrupted by one of the soldiers: "However, we are really useless, and we need such a small girl to help us..."

The atmosphere in the car was a little bit depressed, and Opalxi glanced at her, sat up slightly, and explained to them in a comforting way: "No... I'm 27, probably older than many of you. And I'm Alchemist, better than many of you."

"Ahahaha what, it's my aunt's age!" A young man who looked younger said with a smile, and was immediately 'beaten' by other soldiers.Ao Poxi propped her chin, and showed a helpless expression to these people.

I don't know how long it took to reach the center.Even though it was night, cheers came from the crowd.Opalxi was not at all obvious among the many strong soldiers, but it was too crowded to get out of it.Unfortunately, the president started to speak at this time, so she stood on tiptoe very hard, listening to his speech.At this time, I heard a man's voice from the side: "Stop listening, follow me."

Ao Poxi looked over, it was a soldier who was dressed many times neater than others.Ao Poxi looked at him and paused for a moment, then finally turned around, took his hand, and followed him out.

Squeezed out and into the alley, an unnatural light came from the soldier, and his appearance changed.Enwei moved his neck, moved his hands again, and complained: "Ah, it's really annoying, why are so many humans gathered together——"

"What's the matter?" Opalxi straightened the clothes that were messed up due to the crowding, looked at Enwei, and asked in confusion.Enwei put her hips on her hips and praised proudly: "Seeing that you were troubled by being squeezed in the crowd, I pulled you out. How are you? Do you think I'm like a savior?"

Opal Xi changed her expression slightly, as if she wanted to say something.Enwei turned around again, climbed onto the roof, and lowered his head.Ao Poxi stood with her head down, her white hair floating slightly over her shoulders, a little oversized military uniform hanging on her body, and her blue eyes sparkled a little.Envi paused for a moment, then stretched out his hand to Opalxi who was standing below, and said, "Come on, let's listen to Lars' speech."

Opalxi raised her head and looked at Enwei.Under the darkness of night, the boy's face could not be distinguished clearly, only Enwei's hair that was scattered by the night wind could be seen.This made her rub her eyes, her heart a little blocked.

Enwei urged again, Opalxi nodded and climbed onto the roof.When climbing to the top, he almost kicked a brick, and Opalxi quickly stood upright.Enwei sighed, held her hand helplessly, looked around, and pointed to a roof somewhere: "Well... it should be better to walk over there, no one will see, and the view is good."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Ao Poxi behind him, and asked with a smile, "Do you want to watch the fireworks of victory?"

"Do you want to watch the fireworks after the successful murder..." Opex pouted and lowered her head slightly.Enwei shook his head, and praised Opal Xi: "Don't say that, why don't you go and see it?

Opalxi sniffled, then glanced at Enwei again.A child's smile hangs on his face, unconsciously making Opalxi take a step forward.Compromising, she said to Enwei: "It's up to you..."

The young girl avoided everyone's eyes and ears, and walked to the destination with the sound of bricks.Enwei sat down first, and Ao Poxi sat beside Enwei.The big president was still talking, and after a while, the big president ended his speech.

At this moment, the fireworks start to jump.

Constantly jumping, colorful colors, and different shapes.Ao Poxi looked at the jumping colors, and glanced slightly at Enwei, who was at the side. As a result, he met Enwei's eyes, and Ao Poxi pouted: "What are you looking at?"

"Just look at it." Enwei replied, turning his gaze back to the fireworks.Aupoxie looked at Enwei cautiously again, the colorful light illuminated Enwei's expression was a little special, but printed on Enwei's deep purple eyes, it was a little unexpectedly good-looking.

Opalxi shrank her toes and hugged her legs.She looked at the fireworks again, and let out a sigh of relief.It's not winter yet, there is no white mist coming out, and nothing can slightly cover up Opexy's expression, so she covered her face slightly.

"What's wrong?" Enwei asked, Opal Xi paused, looked at Enwei again, frowned and said, "Enwei shut up and watch your fireworks."

Enwei groaned a few times, as if losing his temper, he never looked at Ao Poxi again.And Ao Poxi just watched the fireworks and pinched her nose.

It feels like something is holding the heart, obviously I will not forget such a scene, but it is hard to let go of it.
